You can mark any window as visible on all workspaces, and likewise
unmark it.  Use the window menu (click on the window icon in the title
bar, or alt-rightclick anywhere inside the window.  I don't remember the
exact English spelling of the two options (since I use Lithuanian), but
it'll be something like 'Show the window in this workspace only' and
'Always show in the current workspace'.
